Lehigh or Vtech

<p>I have been accepted by Lehigh University and Virginia Tech and i am planning to study chemical engineering. Which University do you think is better for that major? I know Vtech has a bigger reputation for engineering, but what about Lehigh? What do you suggest me?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>extremely bad taste wal ................</p>

<p>wal is unaware, I'm sure. (turn on the news)</p>

<p>wal is an international student you may need to fill him/her in.</p>

<p>I still think VaTech would be the choice. You cant judge a school on a bad incident. Penn State for example had a shooting at the HUB a few years back, but that doesnt mean it's way more dangerous now.</p>

<p>even if he know why is it bad taste? its terrible what happened but he needs help picking a college and hes allowed to ask.</p>

<p>I didn't understand that. What is meant with bad taste?
And furthermore I didn't know what had happened by that time. Of course I am really sorry and wasn't trying to make fun of it, or i don't what you tried to say with bad taste.</p>

<p>sorry wal, I saw that you had very few posts and I thought it was some sick kind of joke- trying to compare Va Tech right now.</p>

<p>No problem :)</p>

<p>But what do you think? Do you know if Lehigh has also a good reputation or is god at chem. eng?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help</p>

<p>I'd say VT over Lehigh. VT simply has much better name recognition nationally.</p>

<p>Choose the one that will help you in your field most.</p>

<p>"You cant judge a school on a bad incident."-depends.</p>

<p>lol</p>

<p>well if you go to vtech youll be with 80% virginians and it's in the middle of nowhere in the south, where the weather is warm...obviously.</p>

<p>if you go to lehigh, you'll go to a private school with a mix of people (still will be mostly white) where there's heavy partying and a large frat scene and a hogwarts-type esque to the campus. it's about an hour away from the NYC. maybe a bit longer. and weather will be obviously colder.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help :):)</p>
